I have been influenced by works by Suzie Stanford with her tea towel chairs, but mine will be influenced by the furniture pieces being Scandinavian in style. The idea was to have the Scandinavian references as being slightly more hidden compared to the Australian style items and motifs in the tea towels and other iconic images.
An example of a Scandinavian room:

The idea was to incorporate as many Scandinavian motifs or objects into the Australian style items to make the whole installation a representation of blended cultures influenced by an Australian upbringing.
